-rofl- Ok, minds out of the gutter. It's freezing in here today, so Nick brought my my electric heating pad, AND my microwave heating pad, a blanket, and turned the heat back up for me. I am so spoiled! . . .

I know gas prices are rising, but this is ridiculous.

I AM!!!! I never dreaded the cold weather as I do now. We were "lucky" last year that the extremes were not too extreme. But who knows what this year would bring. Now I read that OPEC got real . . .

Oh my Lord...as if I'm not already positively freaking out about money, I found my emergency heat was turned on. Not sure whether I did this by mistake, adjusting the thermostat, or my 17 yr. old . . .
